Irrlicht Engine

So I was thinking of implementing a console in my project.

What obviously came to mind was the best console lib around, GNU readline. It handles tab completition, history, command editing, all the bells and whistles.

Then I remembered that in their wisdom, they made readline GPL, because it's non-essential unlike the libc for example, so that it provides incentives to GPL your app.


No point here really, just showing how I too got in that position

A GUI console object could be a nice addition, seeing how many people want one on their apps, it perhaps, could also be the output for the Irrlicht internal messages.

Google showed one already, but it seems to be from 2003:

Yikes, it's for irr 0.7 (!)
